Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 22, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Project Brookwood Data Center Campus in Brookwood, Tuscaloosa County, Alabama appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Notes on the record
New York developer Youngwoo & Associates, doing business locally as Project Brookwood LLC, which already owned 200 acres on the site. Rezoning petition states the intended use is a 'Data Center Campus'. Site plans, a land development permit, building permits and state environmental permitting all remain ahead. Distinct from the adjacent Applied Digital tract. Coordinates are a Brookwood Parkway street-segment geocode near Brookwood Middle School, not a parcel-confirmed point.
What the record does not establish, and the document that would
In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.
- Power capacity in megawatts
- Cooling method and water use
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- How the community has received it
- Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
- Power capacity in megawatts
- The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
- Cooling method and water use
- The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
- Permanent jobs promised
- The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
- How the community has received it
- Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
- Which utility serves it
- The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.
